XBL update = bad
-Blank- | 8:15 PM on 12.04.2007 12 comments


wtf is going on here?

so i get home after a hard day's work to play some COD4, like anyone else

but what do i get greeted to?

supreme lag in the lobby and trying to get to the x box live lobby.

so the update has taken effect, and looked alright at the time...

but it sucked major balls once i couldnt get into a match

- i couldnt get into a match

- my xbox would freeze up when i invited a friend

- gamertags wouldnt load

- waited 10 minutes to find a match, to have the game lobby closed once i got in

this is bullshit

someone better get to fixing this shit before i bust a cap in a small goat.

It was like that for me this afternoon.

It's pretty much been this way since a mass of people began updating their dashboards. It is starting to get a bit better, but it's still hit or miss on getting a game going. I'd give it another couple hours.
Yashoki's Destructoid Blog
Alot of people are reporting that D:
No shutdown's Destructoid Blog
I didn't really notice any problems when I updated...
I was more interested in bioshock stuffs anyway.
Hopefully I won't run into any problems.
Macca's Destructoid Blog
Well I'm getting a ton of lag in Halo 3 that wasn't occurring yesterday...
Ub3rSlug's Destructoid Blog
Yeah, but everything else on the dashboard moves like it's on crack.
Ocified-Xboxer's Destructoid Blog
theres a fuckload of people who are (after updating) probably chowing down the BW and download 4 gigs of psychonaut goodness or some other insanely large "original"...im sure it will be much better tomorrow....
ZeroTolo's Destructoid Blog
same here. i try to play COD and I get nothing. All you can really do is wait.
Shin Oni's Destructoid Blog
outside the slow friends loadup, everything else is fine for me.

course I haven't touched an online game since Marvel...
ArrestedDeveloper's Destructoid Blog
I'm sure it will all be fine tomorrow.
AngelsDontBurn's Destructoid Blog
Yeah, the update made my 360 act funky in all sorts of ways.
